For an acute angled triangle 

h^2 < x^2 + y^2      where h = longest side and x and y are the other 2 sides.

so here we have

15^2 <  x^2 + (2x)^2

15^2 <  5x^2

x^2 >  15*3 = 45
x > sqrt 45 or x > 6.7

So smallest whole number value of  x is 7

Sam is packing gift boxes with fruit. For each apple he packs 3 plums and 5 oranges. If he puts 3 apples in a box, how many plum
Musya8 [376]
You can make an equation.

Let x=oranges
p=plums
n=apples

n= 3p + 5x

So basically we know 1 Apple means Sam will pack 3 plums and 5 oranges

To get 3n which means 3 apples we have to multiply the whole equation by 3


(n= 3p + 5x) x3


3n=9p+15x

So Sam will also put 9 plums and 15 oranges if he puts 3 apples in the box

X²+5x+5 has zeroes given by x=(-5±√25-20)/2=(-5±√5)/2=-1.3820 and -3.6180.
In simplest radical form the zeroes are -5/2+√5/2 and -5/2-√5/2.

Dominic runs a farm stand that sells peaches and grapes yesterday Dominic sold 34 pounds of peaches and 45 lb of grapes for a to
iren2701 [21]

Answer:34p+16g=208

47p+16g=208

Step-by-step explanation:

Let p=the price of each pound of peaches.

Let g=the price of each pound of grapes.

Each pound of peaches sells for $p, so 34 pounds of peaches will bring in 34p dollars. Each pound of grapes will bring in 45g dollars. Therefore, the total amount 34p+45g=192.25

Likewise, if 47 pounds of peaches and 16 pounds of grapes brought in $208 then

47p+16g=208

34p+45g=192.25

47+16g=208

Toby's Tiny Toys have fixed expenses of $53,900 for the production of their tiny toys. Toby's has a variable expense of $12.50 a
ipn [44]

The total cost of the factory will be the sum of its variable costs and it's fixed costs. The factory has fixed costs of $53,900 and variable costs of $12.50 per unit produced. Let x be the number of toy's produced by this Toby's Tiny Toys, then the total variable costs will be 12.50x. From this information we can gather that the cost function for this factory is,

C(x)=53\,900+12.50x.

On the other hand, if we let x be the number of toys sold, we can gather that at the selling price of 16.50, the revenue function will be ,

R(x)=16.50x.

Toby's Tiny Toys will reach their break even point when the total costs are equal to the total revenue. At this break even point ,we have that

R(x)=C(x)\\\implies 16.50x=12.50x+53\,900\\\implies 16.50x-12.50x=53\,900\\\implies 4x=53\,900\\\implies x=\frac{53\,900}{4} \\\implies x=134\,750.

The company has to sell 134 750 units to break even.

A certain temperature measurement is performed 500 times. The mean value is 0 deg F and the standard deviation is 1 deg F. Assum
egoroff_w [7]

Answer:

477

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that:

Number of trials (n) = 500

Mean (m) = 0

Standard deviation (s) = 1

how many readings fall within +/- 2.000 deg F of the mean value

Mean of 0 and standard deviation of 1

P(-2 ≤ x ≤ 2)

Using the Z probability calculator :

P(x ≤ 2) = 0.97725 ;

P(x ≤ - 2) = 0.02275

Hence :

P(x ≤ 2) - P(x ≤ - 2) = 0.97725 - 0.02275 = 0.9545

Hence, number of readings in 500 trials:

0.9545 * 500 = 477.25

= 477 values
